Abstract: A system may receive a network address to be validated to determine whether the network address is associated with a toll-free data service. The system may perform a validation operation to validate that the network address is associated with the toll-free data service. The validation operation may be based on a key identifier associated with the network address or a network address signature associated with the network address. The key identifier may correspond to a security key used to create the network address signature. The network address signature may be created using the security key. The system may determine whether to bill a first party or a second party for data usage associated with the toll-free data service based on the validation operation. The system may provide information that identifies whether to bill the first party or the second party for the data usage associated with the toll-free data service.

Abstract translation: 系统可以接收要被验证的网络地址以确定网络地址是否与免费数据服务相关联。 系统可以执行验证操作来验证网络地址与免费数据服务相关联。 验证操作可以基于与网络地址相关联的密钥标识符或与网络地址相关联的网络地址签名。 密钥标识符可以对应于用于创建网络地址签名的安全密钥。 可以使用安全密钥创建网络地址签名。 基于验证操作，系统可以确定是否向第一方或第二方收取与免费数据服务相关联的数据使用。 系统可以提供用于识别与免费数据服务相关联的数据使用是否向第一方或第二方收费的信息。

Abstract: A first network device receives multiple subscription data campaigns, where each of the multiple subscription data campaigns comprises media content, a free data usage quota, and a price for receiving the media content, presents the multiple subscription data campaigns to a user device associated with a user, and receives a selection of one of the multiple subscription data campaigns from the user device. The first network device receives, from a second network device, an indication that the user has successfully subscribed to the selected one of the multiple subscription data campaigns, where the second network device hosts media content associated with the selected one of the multiple subscription data campaigns, generates an authorization token that includes an identifier of the user, an identifier of the selected one of the multiple subscription data campaigns, and the free data usage quota, and sends the authorization token to the second network device.

Abstract: A device can receive, from a set of storage devices, first information relating to one or more pilot data plans that are associated with one or more first groups of user devices. The device can receive, from the set of storage devices, second information relating to one or more live data plans that are associated with one or more second groups of user devices. The device can analyze the first information and/or the second information to identify one or more patterns of information. The one or more patterns can include a data usage pattern, a demographic information pattern, a revenue generation pattern, and/or a user interest pattern. The device can perform one or more actions, including generating a new data plan, identifying one or more user accounts as candidates for a new data plan, and/or transmitting, via a network, information relating to the new data plan.

Abstract: A first device may obtain a session time record that includes information relating to a secure session. The session time record may include a content identifier and a device identifier that is associated with a second device. The content identifier may be associated with content to be provided via a secure session and via the second device. The content may be associated with a sponsored data campaign. The first device may obtain, from the second device, data usage information identifying an amount of data provided via the second device and in association with the secure session. The first device may determine information identifying a party responsible for the amount of data provided in association with the secure session based on the session time record and based on the data usage information. The first device may store or provide the information identifying the party responsible for the amount of data.

Abstract: A device may receive a network address and a signature. The network address may be associated with a sponsored data campaign, and the signature may be generated based on a security key and based on the network address. The device may perform a validation operation on the signature to validate that the network address is associated with the sponsored data campaign. The validation operation may be performed based on the security key. The security key may be obtained based on a key identifier. The device may selectively permit or deny access to content associated with the network address based on a result of the validation operation.
